Mastering Powers

A World of Color

In the middle of the city known as Canterlot, a girlish figure pulled himself from the sidewalk. He had just woken up from a strange slumber induced during his job. A job he hates but because of his circumstances, it pays well. After all, cafes in Japan are popular for unique reasons. Some, have butlers. The one he worked in had maids, and we can be quite certain of his position.

On each side of the sidewalk he pulled himself from, humans of strange coloring walked. No one, used to the strange, looked towards him. After all, a human-horse hybrid, also called a centaur, had finally been arrested. Another, a teacher, had been stoned in his vehicle by excessively rude students and came back the next day having scientifically engineered cotton candy clouds that rained chocolate milk. It had taken a yellow girl to calm him.

The boy's appearance, despite being very very feminine, was normal aside from his massive wings of nearly glowing silver, sharp enough to cut light itself. The figure blinked.

"Where-Where am I?" his female-esque voice asked. "Rainbow people?"

His face portrayed one of pure bewilderment. He had just registered the coloring before he heard a voice that sounded like the moonlight itself was dancing.

"Excuse me dear? Are you okay?" the moonlight asked.

"Where-where am I?" He asked as he turned. Before him stood a woman with night blue hair, twinkling like the stars themselves lived there as it flowed to an unfelt wind. Her skin was a deeper but less varied blue.

She placed her hand on his cheek rubbing her thumb against it. "You're in Canterlot, of the nation of Equestria."

"Equestria?" he asked her.

"Amnesia. I must take you to the Doctor," she murmured. "Please follow me. You can trust me dear."

Amnesia? he wondered, But I remember everything... I live in Tokyo, Japan. I'm a college student studying electronics...

The woman, having led him past just a few houses, knocked on the door of a little blue box.

"TIME TURNER!" She called.

"I'm sorry, who?" a slightly muffled voice called back.

"Oh for... Doctor!" she called, slightly miffed.

"Thank you!" a man stepped out, "now, what's the issue?"

"This girl seems to have a case of amnesia, Doctor, can you do anything?" she asked.

"Of course I can Luna, but I will tell you. She doesn't have amnesia. In fact, she has a very detailed memory. The TARDIS scans new arrivals to the planet when I let her. Of course, I was getting ready to come see her myself. TARDIS found quite an amount of Void on her," The Doctor answered.

"Void?" Luna questioned.

"Well, my people call it the Void. Its both that and a barrier. Its empty, to most things, and keeps worlds apart. Parallel universes. Something powerful must have sent her here. TARDIS found no ill intent so I suggest you enroll her in school just to watch her."

The boy tried speaking but the effects of being sent through the Void must have had adverse effects on him because as soon as he tried he passed out.


Dreaming...


Amnesia opened his eyes to see a weird room full of instruments of all kinds and a woman with the ears and tail of a cat. She was singing.
"When will the day come?
When will I see you once again?
I have lost you and the light,
is fading away."

Amnesia was filled with a longing for home and days long gone as she sang. As he began to sway she stopped.
"Alexis."

"Who are you?" he asked.

"I am the reason you're here. Not as a punishment but to help you and me. There is a man, an evil man, who killed nearly everyone I am attached with. Hopefully the powers you drew can help. The only one I can help you is for hints and this," she leaned forward and kissed him lightly on the forehead. "For now, so you don't endanger yourself, call me The Musician. My first hint, Look for the one with the powers of water and light for they will help you."

She began to vanish as he woke. "I am in a War so I can't do much. One day I will come to you. For now, there is someone in your world you need to find, her name is Celestia and, no not the one you met, she is a pony with wings and a horn. She will not be where you go after this world, but located far away from either Equestria. Help me with this and I will let you pick a friend to bring here."

Amnesia nodded and she vanished.


The Next Day


Alexis, for that was the boy's name, pulled himself out of a very comfy, but pink, bed. He was in some pajamas which were pink as well. A knock came from the door.

"Time to get up!" came Luna's voice.

He opened the door and walked face first into a pair of fleshy white mounds. Immediately he jumped back, face burning with embarrassment. The owner of the mounds was a woman similar to Luna but with a few lighter colors in her hair.

"Luna? Who's your friend?" the woman yelled, her face still calm.

"Oh," Luna peered past the corner wearing a chefs hat. "Tia, Amnesia. Amnesia, Tia."

Tia looked at Alexis. "She means Celestia. I take it your name's not Amnesia?"

"No, but it can work for now. My old name was..." he waved his hands past himself. Celestia nodded.

"Alright." A warm smile appeared on Celestia's face. Amnesia smiled back.


At CHS


"Alright class, we have a new student. Her name is Amnesia," the teacher announced. They peered up at him in his three-sizes-too-big-hoodie and he looked at them. "He-hello," he stuttered. One of the windows near him shattered and he shielded himself from the blast. He pulled his sleeve down to discover and piece of glass embedded in the sleeve. He plucked it out and saw something shimmer before a scratch that it had left vanished.

Meanwhile the class was laughing and a girl at the back of the room was looking at him with a burning curiosity. Her eyes twinkled before she spoke.

"The King..." she whispered.
